The Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria was established early in the first century between 48 – 61 AD, by Saint Mark the Apostle the writer of the second gospel (Click for a brief history).

In July 1973, to serve the Coptic community in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, the first Coptic Orthodox Liturgy was prayed in Kensington. With the grace of God and the guidance, blessings, and prayers of the late His Holiness Pope Shenouda the 3rd (117th Pope of Alexandria) Saint George church grew and continues to flourish (Click for a brief overview of the St George church history).
